First I would recommend this website to our cooperative and district staff.
Make staff and families aware of the FREE audio books available for download.
Suggest classrooms (esp in the districts) use word talk, if text to speech is not available in their classrooms
Recommend graphic organizers be used with a GROUP of students (e.g. after a community trip or a classroom experience)
Suggest tar heel reader for beginning readers of all ages
Spelling City...this is a resource that I've suggested to our staff and families
Suggest that individual teams recommend specific websites to families for carry over at home
Use Story Starters for beginning writers (e.g. Scholastic Story Starters)
Use Writing Fun..to get students interested in a greater variety of writing tasks
Use My Study Bar...a floating tool bar to support literacy
